Similar letters of reference indicate correspending parts.

The invention will first be described in connection with drawing, andthen pointe-d out in the claim.

A represents the body ofthe stove, to which is attached, or upon whichis formed, the register-frame B, to which is pivoted the damper Or valveO, in the usual Way. To the registerframe Bis attached, by rivets Orother means,

a frame, D, in which is formed a groove to receive a plate, E, ofperforated sheet metal or Wire-gauze, by which the escape of any sparksthrough the openings of the register is wholly prevented.

The manner in which the plateEis attached allows it to be readilyremoved when worn andv replaced with a new one, and prevents it frominterfering with the proper operation of the register.
